I previously asked if u can kite a SE in Perth (particularly Brighton) and was told not to bother. Fair enough, good advice. Seein as Im still new and yet to experience anything but the stock standard summer S/SW seabreeze I was wondering what the kitings like in a W NW like its going to be on Wed. I'm assuming this is still ok to ride in as its not offshore, but how is it? Gusty? Gutless? Gettin a bit excited at the prospect of doin a downwinder on my natural forehand for a change. (Assuming things work in reverse when its NW.) Any comments before Wed from those in the know would be great. Cheers.
NW is my fav wind However it is rare that you get days where you have a steady nw wind and good waves. NW tends to be the front coming or arrived so it is generally gusty hectic and full on Though sometimes it can be good and when it is good drop everything and go to the beach cause its all time
My best ever most memorable kites have all been in winter on a NW.
Just what I was hoping to hear! Lookin forward to Wed and winter even more now. I reckon there could be a sicki or 2 on the cards. Cheers for the beach advice Kitehard, will def try and get a ride at all of em when Winter hits.
